It was a massive move as well . Job were part of it as well as the increased services -
It was the fisrt time men on mass left the home to go "out" to work as well - I have always found it interesting that in the 60's women were blamed for the destruction of the family for wanting a job
Before the industrial revolution subsistance farming was the norm and small communities existed with all family members working at or in the home - The industrial revolution brought cash - somthing most had not seen much of - a lot of barter existed .
I have beef you have pork lets trade etc.
Children worked with thier parents and were educated by them for the most part and schools existed to provide book learning - somthing that wasn't all that open to the masses
